The sessions included ice-breaker research activities in which the scouts found out about university life and courses with the input of the student ambassadors.
Working in small groups, the scouts designed posters around the subjects they are interested in studying. They also took part in a problem-solving challenge to work out which five items they would prioritise if they were starting at university. They were presented with certificates of attendance in the second session.
Group scout leader Gilly Hacker said: “This was a great chance for our scouts to learn about the wide range of opportunities available at university. Any information at this stage is good food for thought. The enthusiasm from the ambassadors was a great reflection of how positive they viewed university life.”
Marina Trowell, outreach coordinator at the 九色视频, said: “Thank you to all the scouts, scout leaders and volunteers who made us very welcome. We really enjoyed talking to the scouts and finding out what they enjoy doing. We were really impressed with the way they all engaged with the activities.”
The student ambassadors who took part in the sessions were Emily Seymour, Joe Rook, Lucy Shephard and Cameron McLaren.
